Essay : The purpose of ducation

What's the real purpose of education? Does it exist because of educating people or do educated people exist because of education? Is it focussed on improving people's own interests or on improving the development of a country because of the government interests? May be it is difficult to know why the government of every country want the education to improve, if it is because of getting in a better position with regard to the rest of countries or if it is a sincere desire to let inhabitants get what they want.

But at the end of the day the purpose isn't what matter the most but the results of the education plan.

Education is a realy important part of many people's life, no matter if someone stopped his/her studies when he/she finished the primary studies or if continued his/hers studies at university.
What you've learned, will always be in your head throughtout your life and it will be realy useful for you to be succesful in many things you'll do.

In adittion, education is a main tool to learn the best way to talk and express yourself, what to my mind is even more important than learning theory or how to solve a maths questions.

It doesn`t mean those things aren't important because both help you to improve your memory or to compare different points of view, what will help you to get your own ideas, opinion and conclusions about different issues.

I must add too that I think education should be a more free choice and that no one should feel pressured to study anyway because I think it is a personal choice and the society, above all your relatives and your friends are always saying you to study because if you don't study a degree you will be a failed person in life.

To my mind it isn't good for no one because every person must do what they think that will make them happy and take them closer to their complete happiness, and there are many people who don't want to continue with their studies, and that's not enough reason to make them feel abortive people.

In conclusion, I think education is a main tool to shape yourself as a person and get your own character, appart of letting you have the oportunity of doing and being what you want in your future but society shouldn't pressure people too much because they are free to chose what they want to do and if they don't continue studying at university it isn't the end of the world.
